Turning the light on and off
Turning on the parking lights
- Turn the light switch to position.
Switching on low beam or high beam
- Turn the light switch to position.
- Press the high beam switch forward.
Turning off the light
- Turn the light switch to position.
The dipped beam is on only when the ignition is on. When the engine is started and after the ignition is switched off, the parking lights are automatically switched on.
On right-hand drive vehicles, the location of the switches is partially different from that on left-hand drive vehicles. However, the symbols on the switches correspond to those of a left-hand drive vehicle.
In some export modifications, in addition to the parking lights, a low-brightness dipped beam is on.
Note
- After the key is removed from the ignition, the buzzer will sound with the lights on and the driver's door open.
- When using the signaling and lighting devices described above, observe the legal requirements.
Fog lights
The light switch also turns on the fog lights.
Turning on the fog lights
- Turn the light switch without entering the symbol.
- First turn the light switch to position.
- Then pull out the light switch to the first detent position 1.
When the fog lights are on, the symbol next to the switch lights up.
Rear fog lamp
The light switch also turns on the rear fog lamp.
- Turn the light switch f without entering the symbol.
- First turn the light switch to position. Then pull out the light switch to the second detent position 2. The rear fog lamp turns on.
When the rear fog lamp is on, the symbols next to the switch light up.
The headlight is mounted on the left side of the trunk lid.
The electrical system of vehicles with a factory-fitted tow hitch provides for automatic deactivation of the rear fog lamp of the vehicle during trailer operation.
Carefully. To avoid dazzling drivers moving behind, turn on the rear fog lamp only when visibility is poor (e.g. in Germany when visibility is less than 50m).
Instrument lighting
It is possible to adjust the brightness of instruments, displays and center console lighting.
The background brightness of the devices is regulated by the left knurled handle.
A phototransistor mounted in the instrument cluster regulates the illumination of the instrument cluster arrows. In addition, when the light is on, the lighting of the center console and instruments is automatically set (arrows and scales) according to the brightness of the surrounding background. In addition, the brightness of the lighting can also be adjusted by the driver, as follows:
With the ignition on
When the ignition is switched on by turning the knurled knob, the brightness of the instrument cluster display indicators can be adjusted.
With the lights on
In addition, when the lights are on, the knurled knob can be used to dim instruments, displays and center console lighting.
Headlight range adjustment
When the low beam is on, the headlight range can be matched to the actual vehicle load.
Set the right knurled go handle to one of the following positions:
Regulator positions
The marked positions of the regulator roughly correspond to the following vehicle loading options:
0 - the driver and front passenger are in the car, the trunk is empty;
1 - all seats are occupied, the trunk is empty;
2 - all seats are occupied, the trunk is loaded;
3 - the driver's seat is occupied, the trunk is loaded.
Carefully. In order to avoid dazzling drivers of oncoming vehicles, be sure to adjust the headlight range accordingly, especially when the vehicle is heavily loaded!
Dynamic headlight beam throw adjustment for vehicles with xenon headlights
When the ignition is switched on and the vehicle is in motion with xenon headlights, the headlight beam throw is automatically adjusted according to the load and the driving mode (e.g. when accelerating, decelerating).
A malfunction is signaled by a signal symbol in the vehicle's malfunction monitoring system.
Emergency light signaling
Hazard warning lights are designed to draw the attention of other road users to your vehicle in dangerous situations.
Press the switch to turn the hazard warning lights on or off.
When the hazard warning light is on, all direction indicator lights flash simultaneously. In addition, the control lamp in the switch flashes and the arrows of the direction indicators in the instrument cluster also flash. The alarm also works when the ignition is off.
In the event of an accident involving the deployment of airbags, the hazard warning lights are switched on automatically.
Note. The hazard warning lights come on, for example, in the following situations:
- if there is a traffic jam ahead and you are at the end,
- in the event of a malfunction or in an emergency,
- in the case of towing or being towed.
Turn signal lever switch and high beam switch
The turn signal lever switch and high beam switch also turn on the parking lights and the light signal.
Functions of the turn signal lever switch and high beam switch:
direction indicators
- To turn on the right direction indicators, press the lever all the way up, and to turn on the left direction indicators, press it all the way down.
- When the lever is pushed up or down to the point of resistance and then released, only a short flashing signal is emitted, for example, when changing lanes.

- After exiting the turn, the indicators turn off automatically.
- The high beam can only be switched on when the low beam is on. At the same time, the control lamp in the instrument cluster lights up.
- The signal light is on when the lever is pulled and held - also when the light is off. At the same time, the high-beam indicator lamp in the instrument cluster comes on.
- When the parking lights are on, the headlights and rear lights are dimmed on the corresponding side of the vehicle. The parking lights are on only when the ignition is off.
